Was he elite or shit?

Seeing as his only real competition throughout a significant period of his career was Wonga, he's overrated.

He's Scottish. Take that as you will

He won a european trophy with a non-glasgow scottish team. That's damn impressive

>>76138250
he lost two cl finals against poop lmao

>>76138277
He had a comically bad squad compared to pep though

Lost his best player and still made it to the CL final.
Yeah, clearly overrated.

>play in same league as halal

ferguson was exposed as a fraud by poop, not once but twice. He was absolutely in charge at united and if he 'lost his best player' it was only because he gave the ok to sell him and bring nani, chorizito or whoever instead while he pocketed a percentage of the ronaldo transfer

it's no surprise he stopped winning once other clubs in the eplel started getting money too

>>76138586
>infinite money

he beat Madrid in Cup Winners Cup with fucking Aberdeen, won the scottish "glasgowteamswinlol" championship with a Aberdeen, won 2 CLs nine years apart, he beat the real infinite money man city team to a premier league title with players like cleverley and jonny evans

he brought through the class of 92 for zero money. your arguments are now automatically invalid.

Great, consistent winner in the PL(possibly the hardest league to win consistently in), but equally shite in the CL where his lack of technique got routinely exposed desu

Manure in CL in the 90s before they finally won in '99:

>lost in the prelims to Galatasaray
>finished 3rd in the group with Barcelona, Galatasaray and Goteborg
>lost in the semis to Borussia
>lost in the quarters to Monaco

HAHAHHAHAHAHA. Not to mention the epic '96 UEFA Cup adventure.

Let's also not forget some absoluette GEMZ from the 00s:

>lost to Bayer in the semis
>lost to Porto in the 1/8s
>finished 4th in the group with Villarreal, Benfica and Lille
>finished 3rd in the group with Benfica, Basel and some Romanian gypsies
>BTFO by Athletic Bilbao in UEFA Cup

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA. For every successful run he had 3 stinkers.

>And having squad composed by UCL winners from 2006
how about you compare both squads before you make yourself look like a bigger clueless mong

Winning 2 CLs in like 25 years in one of the consistently richest clubs in the world is not that impressive.

>spain cuck ass-blasted that Pep won La Lelga with ease but couldn't even finish top 3 in EPL

that youth unemployment getting to ya lad?

>>76138250
Im a Man City fan and have been for close to 17 years now (was an edgy kid, wanted to support the OTHER guys), and I can easily say Fergie was the best manager to ever manage in England.

Even if he was a complete cunt you can't take that away from him. I don't think anyone will surpass him. Guardiola, Conte and Pochettino could potentially do it given enough time, but I doubt any of them will stay long enough.

Thanks to Ferguson, the following players have a Champions League medal:

>Wes Brown
>John O'Shea
>Darren Fletcher
>Phil Neville
>Louis Saha
>Jonathan Greening
>Nani
>Anderson
>Ronny Johnsen
>David May
>Tomasz Kuszczak

Let's see Pep or Ancelotti win with that lot

>>76139581
Rooney, too.

You now remember Poop getting BTFO a few times by Barca himself. Ferguson would be far more successful if Manchester wasn't a relatively shit city or if he has unlimited oil money. He could only attract merely good/decent players because of it. Poop and Ancelotti on the other have always managed stacked teams.

literally who

2011 Man Utd was fucking shit and only Ferguson could have dragged them to the CL final

Gee I wonder, was he?

Also United for being one of the richest and biggest clubs has always had kind of shitty squads compared to teams like Bayern, Barca, Real and Milan.

Tomasz KUSZCZAK ladies and gentlemens

Fergie won 2 CL in his time at Man U, only Milan (5), Barcelona (4), Real (3) and Bayern (3) won more in that time

He also reached 4 CL finals, only Milan (8), Bayern (6), Barcelona (5) reached more during the same time period

So yes

>>76138250

He bought the league for years and years, until Chelsea and Man City were able to buy it as well. Only clubs that have not bought the premiership in the past 20 years are Arsenal and Leicester

True, it was the season after when United were even worse after Bayern ended Rooney's career

Half of their team that dominated the league for two decades were academy players.
